Many people don’t appreciate girls with muscle and says many irreverent and useless things about girls who want to build their career in this sport which is one of the most common reasons why participation of women in this sport is very less as compared to men.

 

Reasons for less participation of women in bodybuilding

But to make a positive social change we have to increase participation of women in this sport which will make a positive impact on society and create a huge change in mentality of people. There are many reasons for less participation of women in bodybuilding and some of them are:

 

• Myths about girl bodybuilders

 

There are many widely circulated myths about girl with muscles such as girls who are in bodybuilding will lose their fertility which is completely wrong and it is proved by research that girl who are in bodybuilding sport do not lose their fertility and there is no scientific evidence about that.

 

• Our society

 

Our society is one of the major reasons why participation of women is less in bodybuilding. Many people don’t see bodybuilding as a respected career for girls but, we need to change that thinking because girls with muscles look more confident and this confidence is good for society.

 

• Slow process of building muscle

 

As compared to men women have less testosterone level so it takes more time in building muscles for women as compared to men. So many women lose their interest in bodybuilding because they receive slow results but patience and consistency are the key to success. That’s why girls with muscles or who participates in bodybuilding are more confident in themselves and have more patience even more than boys.

 

There are many other reasons too for less participation of women in bodybuilding but these reasons are most common and creates problems for women but we need to spread awareness of fitness which can increase participation of women in this sport.
